Frequently Asked Questions

What encoding is used to convert each character to binary?

Standard 8-bit ASCII/UTF-8 byte values, so each character becomes an 8-digit binary sequence.

Does it handle spaces and punctuation, not just letters?

Yes - every character including spaces, numbers, and punctuation is converted to its corresponding binary byte.

What format should my binary input be in to decode it back to text?

Space-separated 8-digit binary groups (e.g. `01001000 01100101`) decode most reliably - a continuous string without spaces may not split into bytes correctly.
